Obviously up to you whether you want to risk your fee, but let me state the obvious, wait with the application until you are back

mid June? Seems .....tight... One way or another.

During my ceremony we had about 20 Oath people and 15 Affirmation ones ... pretty close to 50:50 .... if not exactly 50:50 actually

Maybe I didn't search hard and deep enough!

Anyone has the link (to the rule, not council websites that may state the obvious)?

I think i have seen it on the approval letter from the HO

There certainly seems to be a lot of posts that are pure scare mongering and not based on fact You don't accept official regulations facts ? Either way, people not getting caught doesn't make it more legal. Sure there is a high possibility nothing is going to happen and the OP can travel and all is...

I believe you need to book within two weeks but need to attend ceremony within 90 days.

Although this is based on the info here at the forums - I cannot find the official stuff about it.

What does the receiptfrom Royal Mail say, it usually says whether it was posted on time for last pickup of day, not sure about wording, but it is there.

But yes, you likely only get your postage back.

Edit: Under price it says 'Posted after last collection'.

Not every HMPO does weekends but my local one, Peterborough does with less than a weeks notice. So you may travel, depending on where you are and which office does weekends, but it is possible. In fact google it, you can search on their website for your nearest HMPO and they show opening hours as well

Peterborough. Right, about the documents, strangely, and I didn't expect that, I received my foreign passport back todat, alongside my certificate. Assumed they keep the passport but I guess because it is a EU paasport, they send it back as I am from the EU and by default we seem to have Dual Citize...

I have to say i am very impressed (so far) by the online application process Applied online on 1st March, sent signed declaration, pix, countersigner and docs on 2nd March Yesterday (7march) got back the docs - now awaiting for interview letter anyone knows how long that takes to arrive? :arrow: I ...

Peterborough seems to have appointments within days, including Saturdays ...

Sounds like a monumental pain in the backside for people who need to travel immediately after naturalisation. I feel somewhat lucky that my home country is also in the EU and I can continue (for now) to use that passport while I am waiting for a British one. It sounds like the immigration office ma...

I couldn't find the answer so I just sent the lot - no harm - if you want to keep a copy - just print it again. I'd rather give them the option to throw pages away rather than being asked to re-send some stuff. Note: The link will become unavailable once they officially received it so make / print a...

When you say appointment - do you mean the actual appointment or the appointment letter ... I also depends where you want to go .. for instance .. I applied online and as soon as the status changed to received I gave it a few days and rang and ask whether the status has changed internally to the int...

Rang today and asked if my application is already at interview stage, which it was as of this morning apparently, so was able to book appointment without letter * Update * Passport for: Adult First Time Application Type: New (Naturalised) Method of application: Online Date of application: 01/03/2016...

I prefer(ed) online as the application can be followed online. You see when they have received it and processing and you have your reference number online as well - so you can't lose it. One thing in mind - and I made the mistake by not knowing - when you make the application online, it gives you th...

Based on the guidance for AN you are required to send the original certificate alongside your application.

Don't leave yourself open for problems / delays so I suggest postponing the NCS appointment.

I believe fasttrack doesn't apply on first passports, but I might be wrong

Yes sure 8 hours driving in one way. With out traffic. Are you serious?? I'm live on south Coast. And you not are in 100% sure they will sign this paper. ts probably not good enough to talk to a general HO helpline - you would need to get through a caseworker for your case if you want to talk to so...

After the email, and if it would be me, I'd be in the way to the PFs office, with a prepared letter from the PF to the HO so all they need to do is sign and stamp, merely repeating the email. Or if all fails, print email, drive over there and have it signed and stamped. I would not rely on Royal Mai...
